Question How to shut off ad blocking program so I can stream the NFL game today on CBS...

[looper]

I tried all the standard places to shut it off. And then I couldn't find the prog to un-install it. Help!

We need more info. What program are you using or if it's an add-on what browser?

 

[looper]

Add-on, Chrome... but I see no reference to the ad blocker prog anywhere on my hard drive.

If you don't have the extensions showing, you can access the extensions by clicking on the puzzle piece where the right-most arrow is pointing to. Otherwise, you can click on the ad blocker program icon (where the left-most arrow is pointing at).

If you aren't sure what it is, post a list of your installed browser extensions.

I've tried that. There is no 'puzzle piece', and I've already looked in 'extensions'...no ad blocker there .

Extensions I have there are:
*password mngr
*App launcher for Open Drive
*DuckDuckGo
*Google Docs

Tbh if it's urgent I would just download another browser (e.g. Edge or Firefox) and solve this problem another day.

The DuckDuckGo extension messes with ad network trackers to protect privacy (while not blocking ads themselves) so it might be at fault if the website has some anti-adblock mechanism.

Make yourself a new shortcut to Chrome to be able to launch it without extensions for such occasions.

You could try an incognito window. Is it possible the blocking is happening at the DNS level? You might also want to check your DNS settings.
